[It's nice to get out of the sun, even if the sudden shift from hot to air-conditioned is all the more dramatic when you're wearing nothing but a breezy robe; as he steps inside, Rufus takes a moment to surreptitiously survey the layout of the store, marking exits and checking for the presence of any gull guards — or anyone who might resemble them.
